Doctor of Eschatology (D.Esc.)

Doctor of Eschatology

(Also available a Th.D in Eschatology)

The Doctor of Eschatology is the first of its kind…Period! Luder-Wycliffe is THE Creator of this degree. The only degree even similar is that offered through the Roman Catholic Church which is called the Th.D. in Eschatology. No Seminary in the world offers the Doctor of Eschatology except Luder-Wycliffe Theological Seminary. We are it! We have made history with this degree program, and now it is offered exclusively by us. This degree program is extremely comprehensive and rigorous…but worth every minute of study. You the student will be of the very first in the entire world to earn this prestigious degree.

With such world-wide excitement and interest in End Times Biblical Prophecy, it is a mystery as to why other seminaries throughout the world had not thought of this academic need earlier. Nevertheless, it is now available to prophecy students from all over the globe.

This term in Christian circles, concerns the study of the last events in human history that have not yet taken place. Some of these events include the Second Coming of Jesus Christ (the Parousia), the resurrection of the saints (sometimes referred to as the Rapture), the Millennium (Christ’s 1,000 year reign on the earth), the second (some believe final) resurrection of the dead, and the last judgment of God.

The primary scriptures used for this type of study include the books of Daniel and Revelation, and Jesus’ teachings regarding the End Time (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21). The Apostle Paul’s discussions about End Time events (1Corinthians 15, 1Thessalonians 4) are also considered associated in nature.
